"I understand the risks, but I still want a speck of level 3 Creation Material," I said with surety. While other things will help me greatly, this speck will do beyond that. It is the thing that could change everything, it is better than any material I had thought of before.
I had been searching for something like it ever since I had understood the full method of core creation and knew what type of core I needed. This is the most important material of my core creation, and I have finally found it.
"Since it is your wish, I will give it to you," she said, and a tiny thumb-size wooden case appeared in her hand, and a small speck of Creation Material fell into it before she closed the box and handed it to me.
"Thank You, your excellency," I said as I took the small box from her and opened it; inside it was a small speck of creation material that is changing its state and color multiple times in a second.
"It is a very important resource; I hope you will not let it fall uselessly," Her Excellency said. "I will not, your excellency," I replied and placed the box in my storage.

What she said seems like a simple thing, but it is not; she is at a place that is an unaccountable distance away, but she is somehow able to project her consciousness from such distance; I wonder just how powerful she is to do something like it.
"You are quite lucky; I was in the meditation when you entered here and was able to connect with a piece of the soul; otherwise, it would not be real me, you would have been dealing with," She said.
"It is my greatest honor, your excellency," I said. "You don't have to call me your excellency; you are my successor, call miss Catherine," she said, "Lady Catherine," I said, I would not dare to call her Catherine; it is too disrespectful to the person who had done so much for this world and Academy.
"I could maintain this connection for little more than an hour; you could ask me for any problems you are having with your problem; with my experience, I will be able to answer most of your question," She said with tone of jest but I am sure, she will have no problem in answering any of my questions.
"Thank you, lady Catherine," I said excitedly.
She is the only person before me who had practiced Celestial Inheritance in our world, and it had been more than three thousand years since she had left our world. The strength she could wield right now is beyond my imagination.
I did not waste any time and started asking her one question after another, and she seemed to have the answer to all of them. No question seemed to faze her; no formation seemed to stop her as she seemed to break them all in few simple steps.
Her answers directly went to the essence of my problems; she had not answered all my questions; sometimes, she would force me to find the answers myself.
While helping me, she also asked questions about the Academy and world; she did not give any of her input, just nodded after hearing my words and continued to answer the questions I had asked her.
"It is time, Micheal," Lady Catherine said just when I was about to ask another question. "Thank you for answering all my questions, your excellency; it had helped me invaluably," I said genuinely. The words were not empty; her words have helped me a lot.
"You are very intelligent, Micheal; even without my help, you would have been able to find the answers to these questions; it would have just taken a little more time," she said, and she began to fade.

As she disappeared, a runic gate appeared in front of me; I looked around the hall before walking into the gate.
Second, later, I found myself outside of the legacy thatch. The moon and stars could be seen shining in the beautiful night sky.
When I had gone inside earlier, I had thought it might take me more than a day to finished the challenges that laid ahead, but it turned out I had finished in less than twelve hours.
I had obtained a lot; the answers and advice from lady Catherine are as valuable as the level 3 creation material in my storage.
With it, I now could plan my trips to the ruins; it would not be easy to get the resources I want, especially the divine crystals. They are notoriously hard to get, and the ruines they are present in are extremely dangerous, that forget elite, even leaders and masters did not dare to go.
I do not plan to go there immediately; for a month, I would work on my Inheritance and research the ruins from the documents we have before going into starting rune hunting.
Before I do that, I have to go back; I am still in Academy, but the location of the legacy thatch is quite remote and secrete that only traveling through the formation is advisable, but the thing is, this is a one-way formation that could only be operated through teachers end.
I had sent the message to the teacher; she would be activating the formation from her end soon. I had just thought that when I found a formation under my feet lighted up and a second later, I disappeared from my spot.
